My name is Alyce Townsend. I have lived in Spencer, Iowa for the last 6 and half years. I'm originally a small town girl from Primghar but moved to Spencer because of the big city shopping with small town appeal. Okay, maybe that's not the whole truth. I hate driving in snow. Living in Spencer allows me to never have to leave town in the winter! I'm a 26 year old mother of three children ages 6, 5, and 4. Yes, that's how old they are. Yes, I know. Please stop laughing. I am currently enrolled in Iowa Lakes Community College for my Business Degree with hopes for someday having my own online clothing store. When I'm not doing homework, chasing kids, or cleaning house I love to write. Writing is my release and I currently have been working on screenplays I hope will someday become Oscar worthy motion pictures. I must warn you that I do at times have a twisted sense of humor, so I hope that when reading my blogs of whatever topic I may joke about, you leave with a smile and a whole new perspective!

Magic Mike Weekend!!!

Posted Friday, June 29, 2012, at 2:13 PM

Oh, magic, magic, wonderful magic Mike! I have to say that I am one of the millions (I'm assuming) women who will be at the movie theater this weekend to attend a movie I will tell my family is a documentary on monkeys. With actors like Channing Tatum and Matthew McConaughey stripping down and doing a little dance for my entertainment, how could I not go spend those dollar bills? This movie will prove to be the closest I'll ever get to adult entertainment and a wonderful excuse for a girls night out. Fourth of July? What Fourth of July weekend? It's Magic Mike weekend!

Now, I have heard a low grumble from some jealous men declaring that are being hosed by this movie. "What about the men?" Come on guys.... Women have strutted their stuff all over the movie screens for your entertainment. Why can't we women have a show that is strictly for our entertainment and doesn't involve tissues or a boat sinking? Let me refresh your memory on women who grinded it out on the big screen, just in case you feel left out and wanna rent a movie while your wife is gone:

1. Demi Moore- Striptease

2. Salma Hayek- From Dusk Till Dawn

3. Jessica Alba- Sin City

4. Jennifer Beals- Flashdance

5. Lindsay Lohan- I Know Who Killed Me

6. Marisa Tomei- The Wrestler

Let us have our movie. At least we're at a movie theater and not at the real deal where alcohol is served to enhance the experience; not popcorn. Who knows though, I'm sure after a great deal of pouting, Magic Molly will be in theaters soon! Until then.... I declare it Magic Mike Weekend!

I havent heard any men grumbling..... On the other hand I do hear women incessantly commenting on how men should judge them for their inner beauty, should respect them for who they are and so on. Personaly I do not care. I say that women should go to the movie and have a great time! Then never utter another complaint EVER whining about men being superficial! LOL :D
